Pretty neat idea, 3D printing is capable of a lot of different things nowadays, even helping our Colemans. Hats off to Jeremy and others like him for bringing modern technology to our good old fashioned technology. What a "Bright" (lol, get it?) idea.
Hi Frank, how are you and family? Another faster idea is get some clear plastic aquarium hose from Amazon, lay it on floor and carefully cut it down one side with razor knife measure and slip on bottom of fount.. Thanx, Sam
Wow it’s brilliant never heard about it but nice to preserve the lantern more and don’t scratch the bottom or surrounding with it. I mean know i wont to be afraid of scratching also the surface where you put the lantern on
Frank I have learned tons from your videos. Thank you for your hard work creating these most instructive episodes. BTW- although I'm not sure it's the compliment it once might have come off as but how often do you hear somebody paraphrasing an old Cosby comedy record?! Kudos! and thanks again my friend!
Frank, is there any chance of videos for the Coleman Catalytic heaters in the future? I have a 3-burner stove and a 220D lantern from 1948 that, thanks to your videos, I have partially disassembled to clean it up a bit. I also have a Catalytic Heater that I've had forever, and it would be great to learn something about it as far as maintenance and repair. Thanks for sharing your wealth of professional knowledge!!!
I have a question. I bought a duel fuel double mantel lantern 2 maybe 3 years ago and it has worked with out a problem. Untill now! Power went out I graben it and fresh fuel pumped it up and I can hear pressure hissing out of the tank. Now Ifound out there an O ring type rubber seal that goes bad, in all of the one I have ever owned this is the first. Anyways I went to take it apart and remove the guts if you will, and I cannot remove it from the tank. In fact the metal has a little wrinkle around the top of the tank. So any ideas on how to remove it with out destroying the tank ?
A cheep way to make a rubber base ring is in five gallon buckets there is a O ring in the lid. Pull it out clean it up and use a small pair of scissors to split it down the center. Feed it on the the base and cut it to length.... Remove it and use T-7000 glue in side the O ring with the needle tip. Don't use to much. Then just feed it back on and flip your lantern upright, press down to set the O ring into place..just let it dry for a day. Then if you want to be sure it's water proof use that T7000 to fill in any gaps. Use a little thinner to clean it up and walaas you got your grippy protective base.
Frank I have a new Coleman lantern I noticed the next morning after running it all night there was a fluid around the lantern ,I checked everything but can't find where is leaking I hate to send things back maybe I can fix it whit your help ,thank you
I’m not sure if this is the same guy, but maybe 2-3 years ago, I saw someone in the Antique Coleman group who was making 3D printed complete bases, but again they may hold water as his looks vented or open to prevent that.
Frank, that is so smart! Thanks. BTW, do you ever come across lanterns where the top may not match the bottom? I have a 220K that no matter what I do, the top frame sits "cockeyed" on the fount, and the collar does not match the indentation ring on the fount. Is that possible? Is there a way to determine the lantern model by checking the fount, somewhere...? Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Nice :) been getting into Coleman lanterns recently, they’re a bit of nostalgia for me and I just think they’re nifty. I am curious tho since I see your Coleman table lamp in your introduction, do you have plans on doing a video or short series on that? I think that would be a cool thing to watch :)
I wonder if that material he uses would stand up to the heat if he made those for the globe to sit into. It would be nice to have the globe cushioned top and bottom to protect it as well as preventing the loose sounds made when pumping up the air and carrying it around. Silicone material would work but getting the design etc. in place and manufactured...hum.
I use clear automotive door edge guards that you can get at any auto parts store, they come in clear, black and chrome
That's a great idea. Maybe he could design a rubber ring for the bottom of the shield as well.
@@Ryan96se don’t want a plastic seal there it could catch on fire
I have just used black rubber tubbing and cut it down the middle. But those are awesome
Cool idea. Frank, very decent of you to pass this on and help another lantern collector/enthusiast make a bit income. You rock buddy!

Frank, thank you so much for creating these resources for people like me, I found a stove and a couple 220f’s and with your help they work flawlessly!
Those looks awesome. Wouldn't mind having a few in black.
You and me both! 🤠👍
Something new under the sun. Looks like a great idea, thanks for sharing
Can't wait to get the tools I ordered. ❤ Thanks for the owners manual
Option 2: the Northstar lanterns rubber base fits all 220/228 fount lanterns.
but those 3d bases look lite and tight!
straight away i'm gonna make one of these! thanks for the video. my lantern's already taken damage at the base of the fount.

Cool!
I wonder if car door edge seal would work?
What a fantastic idea. Thanks for sharing that!
Your channel is awesome. So glad you shared this!!
We’ll keep um’ burning in Estes Park CO 🏔 🌲 🐻 🦌

Those rings are nice!
Great video, love the info . Thanks for taking the time .

Thanks for this Chanel!
I've been thinking about this for the last few days. You can buy those door edge guards for your car doors, should snap right on.
Good idea
Make sure you get the one without the adhesives, makes a nasty mess when they melt or when you remove them.
Black would be 😎
Thank you great info.
love it
Frank we need some new videos to keep the spirit alive man!

Don't over-tighten, don't under-tighten; perfectly clear.
good.
I wrapped electric tape on the bottom of one of my stoves.

Gasket seal- silicone seal can handle both those problems.
That was my thinking. 🤔

Any advice where to get more than one diameter?
Hey Frank! Are you familiar with a 5121 Lantern?
🖖
I just use clear plastic edge guard that go’s around car doors no need to over think it
Right; my local HW store has black rubber edge trim that's cheap and works fine.
Cool !!
